to get started.

The location was away from all others, the bed was very comfortable, decorations inside & outside. Bbq grill with tables, parking was right in front of room. Cozy & relaxing enough lights. The couple was so sweet& nice. My Very favorite was i can hear the sounds of the ocean the waves i truly missed it. Best part was to sleep on a very cozy comfortable bed while hearing it. We enjoy our stay we will definitely be back next year😄😍😍

Walkable to town for restaurants etc. Walkable to the beach. Two bedrooms, full (small) kitchen with full size refrigerator. Worked nicely for me, wife, 5 year old and 9 month old.

I was in Ocean Shores looking to buy a home. The motel's location was great for this, as it's near the main streets into town, and the beach driving access road. You could walk to the beach or town if you like long walks. It's near horseback riding, restaurants, the jetty, and Oyhut Bay. The room was very clean, and had everything we needed, including a microwave, fridge, coffee, plates and utensils. The wi-fi and TV worked well. I liked it because it was small and quaint, which I find cozier than larger hotels. The owners were very nice, and graciously answered all of my questions about the town, gave restaurant recommendations, and were able to extend my stay a few extra days, offering a lower rate after the weekend.

Little hidden gem in Ocean Shores. Cabin style room with 4 poster bed, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, very quiet and cozy. Owners were very nice and accommodating. highly recommend this facility. I have pre-booked another trip. Beaches close by and wonderful wildlife. I saw deer, bunnies and eagles daily.

“I would recommend. It’s not perfect. But for the most part it was comfy.”

Didn’t like that I went from 2 people to one and they charged me for 2. It wasn’t my choice my mom couldn’t come with me. She’s in a nursing home. I hope they changed me from handicapped room because if that’s same room there is no way it would have worked. Also, like I said, lots of extra towels but no extra tp. For a 3 nite stay. Shower sprayed water everywhere. There was almost an altercation between 2 rooms next to me. Over loud tv. It wasn’t against my wall so I didn’t notice. Kept hearing some banging. Then heard loud voices. Asking my neighbor to turn down the TV. He was hard of hearing.
Liked the extra towels. Liked the size of fridge. Great amount of coffee even though I don’t drink it.
